3 tbsp unsalted butter

2 large garlic cloves, minced
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/2 tsp salt

Recipe



Bring 4 qt. salted water to a boil in a large Dutch oven over high heat. Add cauliflower; cook just until crisp-tender, stirring often. Drain; rinse under cold water. Let cool in colander.

Melt 3 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add green onions and garlic, saute 3 minutes. Whisk in flour until smooth. Cook 1 minute, whisking constantly. Gradually whisk in milk and cream; cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until mixture is thickened and bubbly. Stir in 1/2 tsp. each salt and nutmeg and 1/4 tsp each pepper. Add cheese, stirring until cheese melts. Remove from heat; add cauliflower, stirring to coat well. Spoon cauliflower into a greased 13x9 inch baking dish.

Combine breadcrumbs and next 3 ingredients in a small bowl; sprinkle over cauliflower. Drizzle with melted butter. Bake, uncovered, at 400 degrees for 35 minutes or until browned and bubbly.
